Tullio Serafin/ The Philharmonia Orchestra

This is an original UK Stereo pressing in very nice condition! It has a front laminated flipback sleeve which has a large sized "Stereo" on the front. It comes with its original polythene-lined "EMI" company inner sleeve.
The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has turquoise blue & silver "Columbia" labels. It has 1st press YAX 301-13 and YAX 302-3 matrix numbers.
This is a rare UK Stereo Classical LP in very nice condition. I have some other rare UK Classical LP's for sale too. So please see my other listings. Don't miss out!
Sleeve: There is some light or very mild fading to the rear sleeve. There is a very tiny 0.3 cm seam split at the bottom sleeve opening. There is some light rubbing wear to the other corner tips. VG++ condition.
Vinyl: Just some light, mild or very mild sleeve rubs can be seen under a strong light. NEAR EX condition. I have play tested this LP in its entirety. Side 1 plays Near Excellent to Excellent overall, & even Excellent+ in some places. There is some light or very light crackle in a few quieter places. There is a bit of light to mild crackle at the start of Side 2. It eases out fairly quickly. Otherwise it plays Near EX to EX overall. The labels are in excellent+ condition and show next to no spindle wear.
The company inner sleeve is in Near Excellent condition. There is some light to very mild ringwear & creasing. There are no seam splits.
AN INVOICE WILL BE SENT TO YOU VERY SOON AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS. PLEASE WAIT FOR THIS BEFORE PAYING.

Please note that these prices are as a general guideline only. For example: Double LPs are classed as two LPs. Also posters, inserts, etc.. can increase postage costs. One parcel must not exceed 2kg (approximately 4-6 LPS).
All records will be sent in high quality vinyl mailers with at least two card stiffeners either side of the LP or 7". I use a cruciform box for larger orders (4-6 LPs). All parcels will be marked "Fragile" and dispatch time will generally be between 1-3 days after payment.
I will also remove the vinyl from the sleeve & place them in a re-sealable polythene sleeve. In order to prevent seam splits. Depending on the inner sleeve; I often remove the vinyl from the inner sleeve & place it in a separate plain paper, or polythene-lined, plain inner sleeve. I am very conscientious and careful when packaging your LP(s).
I consider my postage & packaging costs to be very transparent & very fair. Packaging costs will generally be between £0.80 to £1.50. I am not adding any further costs for handling, etc...
Sorry, I only accept Paypal, or money sent in a registered letter from overseas buyers.
Please note that I cannot reimburse payments for any uninsured items lost in the post. Sorry!
If you are uncertain about any of the above, or just simply want some information regarding any item, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any questions.
Remember to check out Lots of rare & quality vinyl! Most are UK 1st Pressings. It is quite likely that there will be more records by this artist, or records in a similar vein.
